Nothing personal but we will never trust you again. 77 million of you voted for the "people" who are joking about annexing my country, your closest ally, and who are driving both our economies into the ground for juvenile spite. Many of you are victims too, but we can't ever trust you as a nation.

It's sobering the last 5 years realizing how many more really horrible people there are in the world than I had originally thought. They've been hiding behind veils of normalcy but it seems they've always been there. Now they're getting implicit permission to drop the facade, and it's horrifying.

Watching MAGA melt down over the phased Epstein file release is glorious. You want to explain to them like they're 5 year-olds that the Trump Admin is stringing them along to stretch out the grift for as long as possible. With MAGA that might mean 4 years.

Martial law. This is where Trump, Musk and the Project 2025 thugs are heading. They want chaos so he can declare martial law and use the military to suppress all dissent. They will use martial law to solve an issue they purposely created. End of the Republic.

Elon Musk, once thought to be the savior of humanity's quest to become multi-planetary, is slowly losing his mind. It started when he was mocked at the Thai cave rescue in 2018 and lashed out calling the rescue leader a "pedo". Now he's attacking NASA commanders like a troll for no reason. Sad.

What's the end game? Discredit the science that is responsible for literally EVERYTHING in the modern world. Defund all new research. Fire millions of scientists. Maybe they expect AI is about to take over all scientific and medical research. Is this prep for an AI world?

God help us, we've let the foxes into the henhouse! Millions will die while the medical grifters get rich with their pseudoscientific quackery fully supported by their con artist cult leader RFK Jr. This will set medicine back 100 years.

Getting publicly spanked by 2 countries in one 24 hour period has gotta be a new record. 3 if you include Panama.

So we agreed to spend $1.3 billion on our border to solve a crisis that doesn't exist, which we had not only agreed to in December with Biden, but had already started to implement by deploying 2 Blackhawks. Trump tanked world markets for THAT???? And got nothing? "Art of the Deal" my azz.

Trump: "US banks not allowed in Canada." There are 16 U.S. based banks with around CAD $113 billion in assets currently in Canada. Trump: "I look at some of the deals made. I say ‘who the hell made these deals? They’re so bad.'" The current (CUSMA) free trade agreement was signed by Trump. 😱😂🤔

I have stopped replying to MAGA, anti-vaxxers, flat earthers and anti-science posters on X. It isn't worth it. They are either grifters making money off their lies and know better but refuse to be corrected, or they're victims of grifters and are incapable. Either way you're yelling into the void.

Curious re: MAGA? For 1 week avoid all news except for what you read on X. DON'T watch ANY mainstream news and ONLY watch Fox News, OAN, Alex Jones, Tucker, Joe Rogan etc. DON'T talk to left-leaning peers about politics or current affairs. That's what MAGA sees. That's ALL MAGA sees. Explains all.

I used to be fascinated by Elon, thinking he was the saviour of humanity. But for the last 5-6 years it has become apparent that he is not, particularly as it relates to humanity and Mars. It is now obvious that getting humans to Mars is his biggest con.

I wonder if a futurist predicted way back when the internet was in its infancy that a few hundred nobodies would build a following that together represented almost half of an entire population. That they would then get paid to lie to that following until half a country believed in absolute nonsense.

The next 4 years will be far worse than any of us thinks.

JFC! I just lost 30 good seconds of my life watching my first ever clip of Alex Jones. People actually WATCH that shit? And FOLLOW this moron? And BELIEVE the nonsense he spews???? No wonder Trump won. Half the country are literally morons. I don't know how we recover from this. I'm scared now.

X today. Report that the New Orleans attacker was an illegal when in fact he was US born. Report of a "huge" explosion at Trump Towers in Vegas, suggesting it was a terrorist attack on Trump, when in fact it was another Tesla Cybertruck on fire. "Citizen journalists" for the 'L'.

Trump's idea to make Canada the 51st state was trolling Trudeau. Then MAGA/MAGACanada latched onto the idea as feasible (it isn't) and desirable by a majority of Canadians (it isn't even close). None of these morons, including many US politicians, can be viewed as even remotely serious people.

The problem with X (Twitter) as the "new media" is the so-called "X journalists" are heavily financially rewarded for 1) stealing the work of real journalists, twisting it to suit the MAGA agenda and passing it off as their own and 2) posting lies and false stories to attract clicks and likes.

The ultimate con man (Trump). 1) Take something you absolutely KNOW is already going to happen (Trudeau resigns or loses election). 2) Troll Trudeau (and Canada) on social media. 3) When Trudeau resigns or loses election, Trump and MAGA claim it was because of Trump's trolling.

We have no idea what 2025/2026 has in store for us. AGI will arrive and it will radically change our world....we will advance more in a year than we did in the prior 5 decades. Few have any clue what that really means. ASI is truly beyond our ability to imagine, and it will come days/weeks later.

MAGA is gloating on X about how they are "the people" now and that their posts caused the GOP to back away from the CR. These poor people are going to be SOOO disappointed over the next 4 years! They actually think they have a say in what happens. It will be glorious to watch them implode.

"Citizen journalism" on X is basically made up of a) stealing the work of mainstream journalists, b) adapting the facts to suit a MAGA agenda, c) claiming the work as your own and d) having #DorkMAGA (Elmo) broadcast to the world that MAGA journalists doing the above are the "new media".

Thousands of scientists spend their entire careers modelling and studying disease patterns in order to predict which ones will erupt and where. And they often get it right and save millions of lives. Except MAGA thinks this means the scientists are the ones releasing the virus. SMH.

The frustrating thing about MAGA is their belief that Trump is a macho, scary leader who sends fear into the hearts of enemies. Putin, Xi, and other world leaders, even Netanyahu, are laughing their asses off behind his back. It's reality tv star vs. hardened, seasoned foreign policy experts.

The scariest things about these times is the anti-vax sentiment. We know vaccines don't fight viruses, the immune system does. Vaccines train the immune system like cardio trains the heart. Occasionally people doing cardio have heart attacks. But nobody suggests exercise is ineffective and unsafe.

Interesting how right wing news drives the Conservative agenda. And how Fox, Alex Jones, NewsMax, X, Joe Rogan, Tucker Carlson, Elon Musk and others have leaned into blatant lies. Their viewers never hear a contrary point of view. In this scenario lies become facts.

I really believe a lot of influential left-leaning journalists and thinkers are missing the point. The billionaires and authors of Project 2025 WANT the cabinet picks to be unqualified so their organizations FAIL. "ACCELERATIONISM". Destabilize and rebuild for THEIR agenda.

The lack of ANY pushback on this election by ANY Democrat is astounding. They don't have to say it was stolen or illegitimate. But they're barely even asking for recounts in close races. Why not make sure? OR DID THEY WANT THIS RESULT?
